Identifying unregistered devices through wireless behavior

ABSTRACT

One or more computer processors detect an unregistered device associated with an identified location, wherein the unregistered device is associated with wireless behavior. The one or more computer processors identify one or more registered devices in a proximity to the identified location and the detected unregistered device. The one or more computer processors identify an occupant associated with the detected unregistered device utilizing a trained device identification model, the identified location, and respective wireless behavior associated with the detected unregistered device and the identified one or more registered devices.

BACKGROUND

The present invention relates generally to the field of wireless networking, and more particularly to identifying unregistered devices.

Wireless communication is the electromagnetic transfer of information between two or more points (e.g., wireless network devices) that are not connected by an electrical conductor. The most common wireless technologies use radio waves. With radio waves, intended distances can be short, such as a few millimeters for low-power methods (e.g., near-field-communication (NFC)) or as far as millions of kilometers for deep-space radio communications. It encompasses various types of fixed, mobile, and portable applications, including two-way radios, cellular telephones, personal digital assistants (PDAs), and wireless networking.

An integrated workplace management system (IWMS) is a software platform that helps organizations optimize the use of workplace resources, including the management of a company's real estate portfolio, infrastructure and facilities assets. IWMS solutions are commonly packaged as a fully integrated suite or as individual modules that can be scaled over time.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Many organizations and companies rent, own, and/or manage vast quantities of office space distributed across the world. These office spaces are, typically, utilized daily by a plurality of employees, visitors, and clients, where the identity of each individual in the plurality may not be known. Managing these quantities of office space can be a prohibitively expensive task as a company or organization continues to grow, expand, and hire employees and, in turn, adjust office space to host said employees. Typically, companies or organizations utilize occupancy monitoring associated with one or more locations to assist in decision making processes for office space management such as lease extensions, space expansion or reduction, etc. While many enterprise management tools exist, these tools require significant engineering support, are cost prohibitive to scale and implement systems that accurately detect and distinguish on-site individuals for occupancy monitoring purposes. Furthermore, existing enterprise management tools struggle to incorporate existing wireless systems. These tools continue to struggle due to increased adoption of individuals carrying and utilizing a plurality of computing devices in office spaces, especially in bring-your-own-device (BYOD) workspaces where many devices are not registered to an enterprise directory. Improvements in the field can yield significant cost savings, for example, an exemplary company with over 78 million square feet of managed office space can potentially save over $400 million dollars a year with a 25% reduction to managed office space.

Embodiments of the present invention recognize that device identification is improved through an ubiquitous wireless infrastructure for the collection of associated wireless behavior (i.e., characteristics of a computing device as it travels through a specified geographical area and interacts with devices therein) and applied machine learning. Embodiments of the present invention leverage existing wireless infrastructure to eliminate the initial capital cost of an IoT deployment for device identification. Embodiments of the present invention recognize that identification of unregistered devices is improved through learned wireless behavior utilizing concurrent wireless behavior of unregistered and registered devices. Embodiments of the present invention determine a category (visitor vs. employee) associated with an unknown device and associated occupant. Embodiments of the present invention automatically enroll one or more unregistered devices associated with an identified employee to an enterprise directory. Embodiments of the present invention utilize the improved device identification for office space optimization, lease accounting, energy management and maintenance. Embodiments of the present invention improve occupancy monitoring by reducing potential double counting through primary device determination and prioritization. Implementation of embodiments of the invention may take a variety of forms, and exemplary implementation details are discussed subsequently with reference to the Figures.

The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the Figures.

In another embodiment, server computer 120 represents a computing system utilizing clustered computers and components (e.g., database server computers, application server computers, etc.) that act as a single pool of seamless resources when accessed within distributed data processing environment 100. In the depicted embodiment, server computer 120 includes database 122 and program 150. In other embodiments, server computer 120 may contain other applications, databases, programs, etc. which have not been depicted in distributed data processing environment 100. Server computer 120 may include internal and external hardware components, as depicted and described in further detail with respect to FIG. 4.

Database 122 is a repository for data used by program 150. In the depicted embodiment, database 122 resides on server computer 120. In another embodiment, database 122 may reside elsewhere within computational environment 100 provided program 150 has access to database 122. A database is an organized collection of data. Database 122 can be implemented with any type of storage device capable of storing data and configuration files that can be accessed and utilized by program 150, such as a database server, a hard disk drive, or a flash memory. In an embodiment, database 122 (e.g., enterprise directory) stores data used by program 150, such as building blueprints, floor layouts, historical occupancy insights, historical occupancy traffic patterns, employee records, lease agreements, historical registered devices, historical unregistered devices, and respective associated wireless behavior. In this embodiment, wireless behavior associated with a computing device includes, but are not limited to, identifying information (e.g., UUID, MAC address, occupant information, etc.), hardware specifications, bandwidth metrics, associated protocols (e.g., encryption, wireless, communication, etc.), duration of time that the computing device maintained a connection to one or more wireless network devices in an area, identified locations, interactions (e.g., pings, transmissions, authentications, connections, communications, transfers, etc.) with one or more devices in a proximity, and security protocols/measures.

In various embodiments, the corpus is temporally structured. For example, the corpus is constrained or limited with regards to a temporal period (e.g., devices that have been observed in the last month).

Program 150 is a program for identifying unregistered wireless devices through associated wireless characteristics. In an embodiment, program 150 is an integrated workplace management system (IWMS). In another embodiment, program 150 is a module in a central IWMS. In various embodiments, program 150 may implement the following steps: detect an unregistered device associated with an identified location, wherein the unregistered device is associated with wireless behavior; identify one or more registered devices in a proximity to the identified location and the detected unregistered device; and identify an occupant associated with the detected unregistered device utilizing a trained device identification model, the identified location, and respective wireless behavior associated with the detected unregistered device and the identified one or more registered devices. In the depicted embodiment, program 150 is a standalone software program. In another embodiment, the functionality of program 150, or any combination programs thereof, may be integrated into a single software program. In some embodiments, program 150 may be located on separate computing devices (not depicted) but can still communicate over network 102. In various embodiments, client versions of program 150 resides on any other registered computing device (not depicted) within computational environment 100. Program 150 is depicted and described in further detail with respect to FIG. 2.

The present invention may contain various accessible data sources, such as database 122, that may include personal storage devices, data, content, or information the user (e.g., occupant) wishes not to be processed. Processing refers to any, automated or unautomated, operation or set of operations such as collection, recording, organization, structuring, storage, adaptation, alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination, or otherwise making available, combination, restriction, erasure, or destruction performed on personal data. Program 150 provides informed consent, with notice of the collection of personal data, allowing the user to opt in or opt out of processing personal data. Consent can take several forms. Opt-in consent can impose on the user to take an affirmative action before the personal data is processed. Alternatively, opt-out consent can impose on the user to take an affirmative action to prevent the processing of personal data before the data is processed. Program 150 enables the authorized and secure processing of user information, such as tracking information, as well as personal data, such as personally identifying information or sensitive personal information. Program 150 provides information regarding the personal data and the nature (e.g., type, scope, purpose, duration, etc.) of the processing. Program 150 provides the user with copies of stored personal data. Program 150 allows the correction or completion of incorrect or incomplete personal data. Program 150 allows the immediate deletion of personal data.

FIG. 2 depicts flowchart 200 illustrating operational steps of program 150 for identifying unregistered wireless devices through associated wireless characteristics, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention.

Program 150 creates a device identification model (step 202). In an embodiment, program 150 initiates responsive to an administrative request or a provided device identification model. In an embodiment, the device identification model is representative of a model utilizing deep learning techniques to train, calculate weights, ingest inputs, and output a plurality of solution vectors, wherein solution vectors include one or more probabilities associated with one or more occupant predictions. In an embodiment, the device identification model utilizes one or more transferrable neural networks algorithms and models (e.g., long short-term memory (LSTM), deep stacking network (DSN), deep belief network (DBN), convolutional neural networks (CNN), compound hierarchical deep models, etc.) that can be trained with supervised or unsupervised methods. In an embodiment, the device identification model is a recurrent neural network (RNN) trained utilizing supervised training methods utilizing the corpus contained in database 122 in order to learn device (i.e., registered and unregistered) patterns and associate said patterns with a plurality of devices (e.g., related wireless behavior), for example, a plurality of devices that join the same access point repeatedly over a small temporal margin.

Program 150 detects an unregistered device (step 204). In an embodiment, program 150 detects an unregistered device by monitoring a plurality of known wireless devices such as an access point. In this embodiment, program 150 continuously monitors and collects wireless behavior from the unregistered device such as UUID, MAC address, and identifying information associated device registration information contained in database 122. For example, as an occupant walks into an office building, an associated occupant smartwatch initiates a connection with the office wireless network and program 150 retrieves an associated MAC address from the occupant smartwatch, attempting to match the retrieved MAC address to a registered device in an enterprise directory. In this embodiment, as the unregistered device moves through the environment, program 150 continuously collects wireless behavior. In another embodiment, registered devices contain an authentication certificate that is utilized to immediately identify said devices. In an embodiment, program 150 utilizes historical wireless interactions with said computing devices or similar computing devices to determine the capabilities of detected and unregistered computing devices. In another embodiment, program 150 retrieves additional information regarding the detected device such as signal strength, timestamp, and duration of connectivity.

Program 150 identifies a location associated with the unregistered device (step 206). In an embodiment, program 150 identifies the location associated with the detected unregistered device by retrieving location information from the wireless network device that detected the unregistered computing device. For example, program 150 queries the access point that detected the unregistered computing device for location information and utilizing the location information and signal strength information from the unregistered computing device, program 150 predicts the location of the unregistered device, for example, as a generalized radius (e.g., service radius of the access point) around the access point. In other embodiments, program 150 may utilize signal triangulation between multiple wireless network devices to determine the location of the unregistered device. In a further embodiment, program 150 associates a corresponding floorplan or digital blueprint with the identified location.

Program 150 identifies a near registered device (step 208). Responsive to identifying the location of the unregistered device, program 150 identifies one or more near (e.g., 5 feet) registered devices. In an embodiment, program 150 queries all registered devices in proximity to the identified location of the unregistered device, where the proximity is a threshold radius or distance between device locations. In another embodiment, program 150 leverages NFC and/or global positioning service (GPS) to identify near registered devices. In a further embodiment, program 150 adjusts the threshold radius based on the identified quantity of near registered devices. For example, program 150 reduces the threshold radius pursuant to a large amount of near registered devices. In this example, program 150 reduces the threshold radius to identify potentially significant (i.e., unregistered device is associated with the user of the registered devices) registered devices. In a further embodiment, program 150 retrieves historical wireless behavior associated with the one or more identified registered devices. In addition, program 150 stores the predicted distance between the unregistered device and one or more registered devices and the duration of close proximity (e.g., one meter) to the one or more identified near registered devices. In a further embodiment, program 150 continuously and/or periodically identifies near registered devices as the unregistered device moves throughout the environment (e.g., office building).

Program 150 identifies an occupant associated with the unregistered device utilizing the created device identification model (step 210). In an embodiment, program 150 ingests the wireless behavior collected from the detected unregistered device and from one or more near registered devices, associated location information, and historical occupancy information into the created device identification model, as described in step 202. In this embodiment, program 150 utilizes the created device identification model to assign component weights to wireless behavior and generate a plurality of probabilities (e.g., numerical representation of predicted identities) calculated from all the weights respectively associated with a plurality of registered occupants. In this embodiment, the created device identification model generates one or more probabilities representing a plurality of occupant identification confidence values. For example, based on ingested information (e.g., the unregistered device maintained a two meter distance from a plurality of registered devices for an entire occupancy duration), program 150 predicts that the user of the unregistered device is associated with the registered user of a plurality of related registered devices. Responsive to program 150 failing to identify the occupant associated with the unregistered device, for example, based on occupant identification confidence values not reaching a predetermined confidence threshold, program 150 tags the unregistered device as a visiting occupant and continues to monitor the unregistered device.

Program 150 determines a primary device for the determined occupant (step 212). Responsive to program 150 identifying the occupant associated with the unregistered device, program 150 registers and/or associated the device with the identified occupant. In a further embodiment, program 150 determines a primary device from the plurality of registered devices to represent the associated user in subsequent occupancy calculations. In this embodiment, program 150 only utilizes the primary device of an occupant to determine all occupancy calculations, ignoring all other registered devices associated with the occupant in subsequent occupancy calculations. In an embodiment, program 150 utilizes associated wireless behavior for each registered device associated with the identified occupant to determine the registered device that accurately track occupant movement. For example, if a particular registered device is associated with consistent usage (e.g., 99% utilization rate while in the environment), such as a smartwatch or a mobile device, then program 150 utilizes said device as the primary device. In an embodiment, program 150 determines a respective primary device for every registered occupant in a plurality of collocated registered occupants. In another embodiment, program 150 utilizes relative signal strength or battery duration to determine the primary device. For example, program 150 determines that the registered device with the greatest historical signal strength is the primary device for the determined occupant. In an embodiment, program 150 only collects subsequent wireless behavior associated with the primary device for the occupant. In another embodiment, program 150 discards collected wireless behavior for every registered device that is not the primary device. In another embodiment, program 150 reclassifies the primary device and selects a new primary from a plurality of registered devices based on continuously collected wireless behavior, occupant removal of the primary device, or replacement of the primary device.

Program 150 generates occupancy insights based on the determined primary device (step 214). In an embodiment, program 150 utilizes each respective determined primary device for a plurality of registered occupants to calculate and generate a plurality of accurate occupancy insights, information, and metrics for a location, such as occupancy density, occupant traffic patterns, occupancy duration at one or more sublocations (e.g., rooms in an office building), most common sublocations, etc. In an example, program 150 collects wireless behavior, over a temporal period, from the determined primary device associated with every employee in a specific office building. In this example, program 150 aggregates the information contained in the collected employee device location information and associates the information with physical specifications (e.g., floor layouts) corresponding with the office building. Here, program 150 generates a plurality of insights regarding employee occupancy corresponding to the physical specifications. Generated insights provide an awareness of the occupancy of a building, floor, or site. In another embodiment, program 150 generates 2D or 3D floorplans with generated insights overlaid. For example, program 150 overlays density graphs over a 2D floorplan to represent average occupants in a ten-minute period specific to a respective sublocation.

In various embodiments, program 150 strips any personal identifiable information (PII) from all information collected, provided, or utilized (e.g., wireless behaviors, generated insights, etc.). For example, one or more registered devices are associated with a unique identifier and an occupant classification with no retained PII. In a further embodiment, program 150 utilizes the generated insights to determine utilization of one or more workspaces across a diverse portfolio of locations and offices to prioritize targeted lease renewals, adjust space opportunity, identify consolidation opportunities, analyze space needs by business unit, and analyze space needs by identified occupant classification. These embodiments assist to manage and consolidate leases to reduce costs and analyze associated financial impacts. In another embodiment, program 150 utilizes the generated insights to perform predictive analytics on future space forecasting, utilization trends, and space driving rate of return. In a further embodiment, program 150 transmits or presents the generated occupancy insights to one or more users, where program 150 utilizes a display (not depicted) associated with a computing device to present. In another embodiment, program 150 generates a document containing the generated occupancy insights.

In an embodiment, program 150 dynamically adjusts workspace requirements (e.g., required work-points (i.e., office seats)) of a company or organization through the improved occupancy counting and generated insights. In another embodiment, program 150 utilizes the improved occupancy monitoring for office space optimization, lease accounting, energy management and maintenance. For example, based on the generated insights, program 150 reduces lighting brightness in one or more rooms (i.e., sublocation) that do not have active employees after a particular hour.

FIG. 3 depicts exemplary embodiment 300, in accordance with an illustrative embodiment of the present invention. In exemplary embodiment 300, user 312 is an employee that works at a downtown location. The company that employs user 312 also promotes a bring-your-own-device culture. User 312 purchases unregistered device 302, a mobile phone, and unregistered device 308, a smartwatch, and intends to utilize said devices at work. User 312 already utilizes registered device 304, a tablet, and registered device 306, a laptop, at work. As user 312 enters the downtown location, user 312 passes access point 310. Program 150 utilizes access point 310 to detect unregistered device 302 and unregistered device 308 responsive to said devices attempting a connection. Program 150 also identifies registered device 304 and registered device 306 as near registered devices in a close proximity to the unregistered devices. Program 150 collects wireless behavior associated with the unregistered devices and ingests the collected wireless behavior into a device identification model trained to associate the unregistered devices to an employee with a high level of confidence. Program 150 determines that the unregistered devices are associated with user 312 and registers said devices into an enterprise directory. Responsively, program 150 selects registered device 304 as the primary device representing user 312 for subsequent occupancy insight generation.
